Lyrics for Dont Pay The Ferryman by Chris Deburgh:
| | | Artist: | Chris Deburgh |
| | Album: | Spark To A Flame | | Track: | Dont Pay The Ferryman | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 59 | | | | Lyrics: | It was late at night on the open road,
Speeding like a man on the run.
A lifetime spent
preparing for the journey -
He was closer now and the search is on -
Reading from a map in
the mind;
Yes, there’s the ragged hill and there’s the boat on the
river.
And when the rain came down,
He heard a wild dog howl…
There were voices
in the night: “Don’t do it!â€
Voices out of sight: “Don’t do
it!
Too many men have failed before! Whatever you do,
Don’t pay the
ferryman!
Don’t even fix a price!
Don’t pay the ferryman…
Until
he gets you to the other side!â€
In the rolling mist, he gets on board
–
Now there’ll be no turning back..
Beware that hooded old man at the
rudder.
And then the lightening flashed and the thunder rolled -
And people calling out
his name…name…name…
And dancing bones that jabbered and a-moaned on the
water.
And then the ferryman said,
“There is trouble ahead
So you must pay me
now.†Don’t do it!
“You must pay me now!†Don’t do
it!
And still that voice came from beyond! “Whatever you do,
Don’t pay the
ferryman!
Don’t even fix a price!
Don’t pay the ferryman…
Until
he gets you to the other side!â€
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Don’t pay the
ferryman!
Don’t even fix a price!
Don’t pay the ferryman…
Until
he gets you to the other side!
Don’t pay the ferryman!
Don’t even fix a
price!
Don’t pay the ferryman…
Until he gets you to the other
side!
Don’t pay the ferryman!
Don’t even fix a price!
Don’t pay
the ferryman…
Until he gets you to the other side!
Don’t pay…the
ferryman! | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
